[conversation] Cultivating a slow and layered approach to art making with Julie Kim

Julie Kim, artist, joins me for today's conversation about the
many layers of art and creativity. We chat about cultivating a
slow approach to art-making, exploring our inner landscapes,
designing an inspiring space and more. She also shares about the
intriguing process of making your own paint pigments, and her
beautiful journey in Peru.


Julie Kim is an artist, designer, and pigment worker from
Seattle, Washington. In her paintings she explores the movement
of light, color, and energy in the spaces where inner and outer
worlds overlap. Using natural handmade and synthetic paints, she
weaves elements of the material landscape together with the felt
and subtle experience, the lightness and density of which are
mirrored in her palette. Her curiosity for landscape and pigment
has led her to explore mountains, rivers, deserts, and jungles of
the world, cultivating a closer relationship with Earth and a
deeper understanding of the inner world. Each pigment discovery
contributes to her handmade mineral paint palette and informs a
vocabulary of shapes that characterize her paintings: wild growth
of jungle foliage, fluidity of the wind, crystallized light, and
clear horizons. Her paintings bring to light an unseen story,
layering dimensions of pigment, landscape, and spirit onto paper.
